Tier 1 Visa

15 years ago

Hi

I'm currently in the UK staying with my boyfriend on a visitors visa, but I would like to come back and work in 2010. I have a BS in Kinesiology and my Masters in Teaching. I also have a Teaching Credential in Physical Education. I am 24 years old and lived in the UK once before on a student work visa. Last year I made around $30,000. How difficult is it to get a Tier 1 visa without a prearranged job sponsor? Also, are there any agencies in the North West that look for international teachers? I know it's easier to find a teaching job in London, but I want to be close to my boyfriend who needs to stay in Manchester for another 2 years while he finishes his current course & apprenticeship. Thanks for your help :)
